Project Report

American Chopper

AIM:

  • To create a model and assembly parts of an “American Chopper”.

OBJECTIVES:

  • To sketch and model different parts of American Chopper in solidworks and to know about create model and different rendering options.

PROCEDURE:

Transmission belt:

  • It is used for power transmission without phase shift. It can be used as a transmission element, to efficiently transmit power or movement.

Tools used:

  • Fillet
  • Extrude

KICK STAND:

  • A kickstand is usually a piece of metal that flips down from the frame and makes contact with the ground. It is generally located in the middle of the bike or towards the rear.

Tools used:

  • Splain
  • Loft
  • Split
  • Extrude
  • Cut extrude
  • Dome

Front Fender:

  • Front Fender is a part mounded on a fork wheel to protect the rider and the chopper of the parts from foreign particles.

Tools used:

  • Sketch
  • Offset entities
  • Revolve
  • Dynamic mirror
  • Split

Oil Tank:

  • Oil tanks store fuel oil for heating systems on commercial and residential properties.

Tools used:

  • Surface extrude
  • Fillet
  • Shell
  • Extrude
  • Surface trim

Pedal:

  • Pedal is a external part attached to the chassis. The pedal is used to place the leg on top of that. It give the comfort to the rider.

Tools used:

  • Extrude
  • Fillet
  • Linear pattern
  • Dome
  • Chamfer

Chain:

  • It is used to convey power to the wheels of a vehicle.

It transmitting mechanical power one place to another place.

  • Chainsare used for decoration to power transmission in heavy machinery. In industry, chain is a flexible series of interconnected rigid links or rings.

Tools used:

  • Extrude
  • Fillet
  • Curve driven pattern
  • Mirror

Front wheel:

  • Front wheel is attached to the front fork.
  • Front wheel has disc brake attached to it which a brake caliper attached.

Tools used:

  • Boss extrude
  • Cut extrude
  • Fillet
  • Revolve
  • Circular pattern
  • Combine

Rear Wheel:

  • Rear wheel has attached to the disc brake and chain sprocket.
  • The engine transmit the power to the rear wheel by transmission belt and chain.

Tools used:

  • Boss extrude
  • Cut extrude
  • Fillet
  • Chamfer
  • Revolve
  • Circular pattern
  • Combine

Front Fork:

  • Front wheel is attached to the front fork.
  • The front fork has handles and headlights attached to it.

Tools used:

  • Boss extrude
  • Cut extrude
  • Revolve
  • Dome
  • Combine
  • Sweep
  • Mirror

Engine:

  • It is used for converting thermal energy into mechanical energy or power to produce force and motion.

Tools used:

  • Boss extrude
  • Fillet
  • Circular pattern
  • Dome
  • Chamfer
  • Mirror
  • Split

Chassis:

  • Chassisis a frame forms its skeleton. All the components of a motorcycle, like the suspension, wheels, fuel tank, seats, handlebars etc, are attached to this base structure which lends a motorcycle its strength and ability to handle well.

Tools used:

  • Curve
  • Sweep
  • Extrude
  • Cut extrude
  • Chamfer
  • Fillet
  • Split
  • Combine
  • Mirror

Gas tank:

  • A gas tank ( petrol tank) is a safe container for flammable fluids.Though any storagetank for fuel may be so called, the term is typically applied to part of an engine system in which the fuel is stored and propelled (fuel pump) or released (pressurized gas) into an engine.

Tools used:

  • Trim
  • Project curve
  • Sweep surface
  • Loft surface
  • Fill surface
  • Trim surface
  • Surface knit

Chopper assembly:

  • We have created different parts to create a American Chopper. And now the assembly part is done. Each part requires a different mate option.
  • So each parts got assembled by doing the following mate procedure.

Tools used:

  • Tangent mate
  • Mid plane mate
  • Coincident
  • Parallel
  • Perpendicular
  • Angel mate
  • Concentric
  • Mirroring of pedal

Rendering:

  • It is the process of generating an image from a model by means of computer software. Renderingis used in architecture, simulators, video games, films and television visual effects and design visualization.

Tools used:

  • Edit scene
  • Edit appearance
  • Edit decal
  • Integrated preview
  • Final render
  • Option
  • Camera
  • Light

Conclusion:

  • In these challenges I have learned a lot of things likeProjecting curves,Rendering,Different kinds of mates,Combining different material,Mirror,Sweep,Dome,Chamfer.
  • This helped to improve my skills in solid works.
